Blogging is going to be fairly “thin on the ground” here for a wee while as my laptop is basically dying.

There’s a fault with the power input section of the motherboard and it’s only charging the battery when the power is OFF. When it’s ON, the battery discharges fully within about 20 minutes and the machine shuts down. It won’t run off the mains alone. I’ve tried a few things to get this fixed myself but to no avail and frankly, as it’s over 5 years old and well out of warranty by now, it looks like it’s time to put it “out to pasture”, as it were.

Will be a wee while before I can afford to shell out for a new one though, so blogging will be light for now. For your blogtertainment (suuuuure, it can be a word…), why not check out Rick, Damien, Ken, Twenty or Ruairí? G’wan…
